Tooting Bec Lido reopens for spring and summer season
Starting Thursday 17th April
With warmer days just around the corner, there's no better way to soak up the sun than taking a dip in this historic outdoor pool.
From 1 May to 30 September, the Lido will open every day with two refreshing sessions per day, alongside special April swim times to kickstart the season.
Last year, the 90-metre-long Lido enjoyed a £4m refurbishment, safeguarding its future for the next 50 years. Works upgraded the pool to make it better for everyone, including a brand new pumphouse to keep water flowing and a modern UV filtration system to keep the water clean and safe.
The surrounding landscaping has also been enhanced, offering the perfect backdrop for sunbathing, socialising, or simply enjoying the vibrant summer atmosphere.

April
- 7.00pm - 2.00pm
May to August
